MexQueenFM 20.01.2004 21:16 |
no , but i've seen the commercials, seems cool |
Ms.Lurex 20.01.2004 22:56 |
i am totally hooked on this show...i hate most of those reality type shows or whatever they are, but american idol is great! i love simon! |

Well I'm sure this is not going to boost my popularity in here but here it goes anyway. I hate that show and this is why. They show the ones of course who make it and then they show the ones who SUCK the most. The ones who are mediocro do not get aired. This is problem #1 for me. #2 It pisses me off how they exploit those who are tone deaf. Why all the freaking humiliation!? I don't know its just sad. I am not tone deaf but many times people who know how well i sing have come up to me to ask me how i can stand listening to someone we have both heard who is tone deaf and procede degrade them to me. It pisses me off because singing should be an expressive feeling of whatever emotion you are wanting to bring to mind. whose to say you cant sing coz your tone deaf. I say singing makes me happy thats why i do it. Even the tone deaf have the right to feel that feeling you get when you sing. Singing can validate my feelings and these days I could really use some validation. Ok my 2 cents. peace, Rosanna |

Actually some valid points you brought up, CHARLES. Yes, we know who it is. What is with these people who cannot sing? How do they make it to Randy, Paula and Simon? Does someone not screen them for talent? I think too much is made of the losers who wail out a song just so Simon and Randy can tee off on them. Instead of three nights of this and Ryan Seacrest's preening, keep it to one simple night. And jettison Paula. These people already have a mother who pats them on the head and tells them they are special; they do not need Paula to do it. What does she add to the show? "I like the colors you are wearing" ?!?!? What? |
anillusion 20.01.2004 23:46 |
"Well I'm sure this is not going to boost my popularity in here but here it goes anyway" NOW you're worried about your popularity?!?!? Charles still loves you (or is that called mutual masturbation?) |
Saffron Caribou 20.01.2004 23:46 |
You have your opinions rossana, that's cool. However I beg to differ, this portion of the show is hilarious. |
Saffron Caribou 20.01.2004 23:50 |
I personally find it ironic really. Paula Abdul is a horrible singer (all nasaly), and yet she is judging this competition. Blythe, I think she said about the chick's dress was a maneuver of "trying" to salvage her self esteem. |
Saffron Caribou 20.01.2004 23:52 |
People! Please! If you are going to fight about Rossana/Charles, do it in another thread. Charles posts various thread, fight there. |
Saffron Caribou 20.01.2004 23:55 |
Remember the chick who did the Flashdance song in tonight's show? She was a fake LOL All info here link What a great actress! LOL Oh, btw, this is the list of the songs/bands that are not allowed to be performed on AI 3, very interesting list. link |

"What is with these people who cannot sing? How do they make it to Randy, Paula and Simon? Does someone not screen them for talent?" There was an article in our local papar about a gal who made it through to Hollywood. She went through two screenings- the first with two other singers in front of a group of producers, a second by herself in front a couple more people- before being sent to the Big Three. It's clearly obvious from this that some of the tone deaf people are sent through just to be ridiculed. It's unfortunate, but the situation is being manipulated more than we know. |
geeksandgeeks 21.01.2004 15:46 |
They aren't searching for the next Luciano or Montserrat, folks. The judegs are looking for someone who is going to be a superstar. Am I the ONLY one who was watching last year when Simon complimented that Carmen girl and told her she had a "commercial" voice? That's not a bad thing, but it definitely spells out what they're looking for. If someone's looking to be in a) the opera, or b) the local punk scene, they're not going to go on this show. |
Ms.Lurex 21.01.2004 21:49 |
oh my...i'm hanging my head tonight...i can't believe houston turned out so poorly! and i can't believe that guy threw water on simon!! |
Saffron Caribou 21.01.2004 22:17 |
LOL I saw the Houston show. It was awful, but funny awful. I heard that there is a pre-audition before the actual audition for the judges, is that true? |
behind blue eyes 22.01.2004 07:03 |
My husband and I were watching last night and of course i was ranting on how the tone deaf were being exploited and he brought a good point. He told me sometimes it takes you seeing and hearing yourself recorded before you realize how painful it is to listen to you sing when you lack the skills and tallent. I thought that was a valid point, but still I hurt for those who love to sing and have a dream and get crushed on national television. And btw Simon is my favorate judge. I just don't care for the producers of the show. |
Pluto 22.01.2004 07:34 |
i totally agree with u Rosanna i watched last night and they were mean. i was hoping to hear people who would get on but instead i just heard people they liked to make fun of. it was very sad. and to all you who want to start to fight with Rosanna leave her alone she just told u how she feels and now you want to start to argue with her grow up you are acting very immature |
Mr.Jingles 22.01.2004 09:03 |
The whole show is about commercial pop music. There was this guy last night who had an awesome voice, but Randy and Simon were not quite sure about letting him in because his voice sounded too old-fashioned (like 70s R&B and Soul). To me this is just wrong because anyone who has a great voice, whether it fits any genre like pop,rock,R&B,punk, and even opera deserves a chance to be heard. P.S. Did you guy see that dude who was singing like Donald Duck? That was fuckin' hilarious... they should have show more of that. |
Pluto 22.01.2004 09:12 |
i liked the "old fashion guy" |

i watched the auditions for houston texas last night. paula gave up early in the show because she was sick and there was one guy who was so bad that it was funny (which most of them are :-P) and simon AND randy both quit on him and he was still singing to empty chairs :-P these people just don't give up! there was one girl, her favorite words were "oh really..... oh really....... oh really......." and she could NOT sing at all! she relied on shaking her ass to get into the competition. simon told her that if she brought in 10 people who thought she had a good voice, he would apoligize. NOBODY said that she had even a slightly good voice! so funny. i love the auditions. |

"If someone's looking to be in a) the opera, or b) the local punk scene, they're not going to go on this show." if you live close enough to one, see what you can do at mom's music!! :-P i haven't tried it... i think you have to have a band that's not crap... or at least a song that you made up... and i'm crap at writing songs so that's one reason i haven't tried it. ...BUT YALL GO AHEAD!! :-P |
Saffron Caribou 27.01.2004 21:03 |
LOL There was this Asian dude on AI tonight that sang WWRY. He sang with a lot of anger. *buwahhahaha* |
iGSM 27.01.2004 21:10 |
heh, I can imagine so. I would have. |
Saffron Caribou 27.01.2004 21:32 |
The way the Asian dude sang it was almost as he was literally pounding someone with fist and all! LOL If I was to audition, which I wouldnt because I know that I cannot sing, would be My Melancholy Blues. Its a classy song. Did anyone catch the scene when Simon asked a guy named Rodrigo, who sang kind of well, what would you do if you have a milliom dollars? He said that he was going to give it to charity, keep 2,000 for himself, invest it and give it to charity. For that only, he didnt pass. I guess Simon spotted insincerity in his answer. |
geeksandgeeks 27.01.2004 22:27 |
Did you know that you're not allowed to do anything "alternative" on that show? |
Sonja 28.01.2004 01:32 |
The German version is running at the moment and I am addicted. Although I'm not a fan of all these casting shows and our first winner, Alexander, is the most embarrassing ever! His performance at World Idol was probably the worst thing that any German has ever done. But it's cool to follow the show and this time the canditates are much better than in the first show. |
Ms.Lurex 28.01.2004 08:55 |
i seen the show last night...that WWRY guy was so stupid! hahah! he might post here i should be nice...i was wondering if Mex was gonna be there since it was in San Francisco last night! Why didn't you go Mex!??! OMG what about that little guy at the end that sang She Bangs?!?!?! OMG!!! OMG!!! hahah |
Saffron Caribou 28.01.2004 19:20 |
Yeah Mex why didnt u go!?! lol |
mrs_groucho 28.01.2004 19:26 |
That guy with the Ricky Martin song rocked my world...lmao Love and I guess that means no, Mrs. G |
Mr.Jingles 28.01.2004 20:43 |
I've lost my trust in this show. Did you guys see that girl with the Simon shirt? She had one hell of a voice, and while Simon said she was great, the others said she wasn't good enough. Meanwhile, this firefighter kid who sang from his nose sounded like shit, and he got a "Yes" from Paula and Randy. Honestly, I used to like that show, but I don't feel like watching it anymore. |
Daburcor? 28.01.2004 20:51 |
My Mom and Dad are watching it now... It's the best comedy on TV at the moment. |
Saffron Caribou 28.01.2004 20:56 |
Hehehe She Bangs dude was cool lol He ruled! Crystal was great! She should've went thru, but the Simon shirt must've pissed off Paula and Randy. LOL However, the big girl who sang "Son of a Preacher Man" was great! I was pissed off that she didnt go through. I bet it was because of her weight. The one that Jingles mentioned, the one that sang through the nose, awful! He should've auditioned for a boy band. Still, I agree Jingle this show has gotten awful. This was my favourite part of the show, so the best is over. |

I felt sorry for the guy that sang "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me." :^( |
Saffron Caribou 28.01.2004 21:39 |
Yeah, I felt sorry for him too Amanda. He was from Bulgaria, sheesh. When he finished the song, I was waiting for him to say "Mr. Elton John" like I do when I sing the song :P However, that guy should become Brian's double :P Still the Bulgarian girl that did a Cher song, *shivers* |
deleted user 28.01.2004 21:46 |
LOL yeah, the girl with the deep voice. Yikes... ;^) |
Daburcor? 28.01.2004 22:09 |
That was what I said.. Followed by "How the hell did THAT happen!?" ;) |
mrs_groucho 28.01.2004 22:14 |
When I sing, sometimes, it is deep and a tad raspy. But, it doesn't sound like a man. When she sang it was all manly and testosterone-like. But it did make for a good laugh...HAHAHA Love and jeepers creepers, Mrs. G |
